Ramon Lavalle (1909–1968), also known as Ramon Muniz Lavalle, was an Argentine diplomat and journalist[1] who served as Argentine consul to Japan during World War II before renouncing his citizenship and going to the United States to work in U.S.[2] intelligence operations[3] for the Office of War Information.
Both men are honoured in their country by being buried in the national La Recoleta Cemetery.

The marriage produced three children; Gwendolyn Pasionaria, Arthur Jack Cimarron, and Raymond Muñiz.
Gwendolyn, who was born in Glasgow, where Ramon Lavalle served at the Argentine Consulate, died in Kowloon of dysentery shortly after the Japanese invasion, which was reported by Carlos Baker in his Hemingway biography.
